Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You have made us for yourself, O Lord, and our hearts are restless until they rest in you. Augustine of Hippo, the Confessions. There is no human heart which does not have a hunger-hole in it. When this hollow makes itself known, you may feel it as a longing for home. It is, in fact, a God planted longing for himself, the home for which you were created. It shows itself in the disappointment you feel when the very thing you thought would satisfy does not. It manifests as a low-grade restlessness, as you seek fulfillment in work, or accomplishments, or sports, or human relationships. For some the intensity of the need triggers addictions and obsessions: to alcohol, drugs, overworking, overeating, over exercising. Blaise Pascal wrote: There is a God- shaped vacuum in the heart of every man which cannot be filled by any created thing, but only by God, the creator, known through Jesus. It is the witness of the Bible that we cannot know ourselves truly apart from a relationship with this creator. For Louise Weld, growing up in a family filled with unconditional love quickened in her the longing which the heart craves, a reunion with the creator whose essence is love, and in whose image men and women are shaped to love as he loves. And once she understood that it was not created things but the creator who could heal her homesickness, and that in fact the Creator had made an extraordinary provision for our homecoming in the revelation and work of Jesus Christ, there was not much else to say or do with her life but commend his grace and mercy to any who would listen. The sermons in this book have been preached and now gathered in this book for that purpose.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When I was a young boy my most exciting times were hearing stories. Stories told to me by my grandparents. I was born in 1937 and was a young boy during World War II. I lived with my grandparents for over two years while my dad was in the army. There was no TV and very little on the radio to keep young people interested. So, it was stories, stories that were told over and over. I will always remember most of these stories and have shared most of them with my children and grandchildren. I am happy to share these stories and hope you will enjoy them. I have written most of these stories and some were told by my grandparents. There will always be story tellers. But not everyone has the desire to tell stories. I think we need to share these stories and never think they will not be read and enjoyed. This is my first book of short stories to be published. I have published three other books including, The Shoebox, The Saloon and Total Commitment. All of these are available at iUniverse, Amazon and Barnes and Noble.

Joseph Franks is the third member of our team of astronauts that make up our crew. We have just departed earth on our first manned mission to Mars.

"That's a possible," I exclaimed, jumping up to double check her figures. "Since we left Earth orbit our engines have been shut down, if anything we should be going slower, not faster." But after checking the ship's instruments, we concluded that she was right. "What the hell is going on? I replied, as I started to recheck the instruments again. About 15 to 20 minutes had gone by; Sue was busy as a bee trying to calculate our speed again, as I frantically looked over at her figures, suddenly! Her eyes widened, "holy mother of God," she screamed, "our speed is now increased to 41,000 mph and is still climbing." Joe yelled, "I have just picked up a large mass of something, a couple of thousand miles ahead, on an intercept course. I don't know what it is, but every minute it's growing larger, I believe it's pulling us toward it. "We will have to do an emergency burn," I commanded, sliding into my seat and fastening my seat belt. "Are you guys strapped in?" I yelled. Not waiting for an answer, I fired our right steering rockets, as I felt the seatbelt harness start to cut into my shoulder, I knew that we were into our turn. After I had turned the ship about 45° I shut the engines down, but within a few seconds the ship seemed too turned back to its original course. I then fired our left steering rockets, but the ship didn't turn at all, as we all stared helplessly at the ship's Main monitor, we realized that straight in front of us was a large mass. Minute by minute the mass grew clearer until we were able to see this large gaping black hole. "Oh no," Sue screamed, covering her eyes with her hands. Within a second or two we felt ourselves being sucked into it as we passed the holes outer edge, the ship seemed too changed directives immediately heading down into the hole. I felt my seat belt drastically cutting into my shoulder, and I was on the verge of blacking out, "I'll see you both in our next lifetime," I remember saying, and then everything went black.

Download or read book Decision Point written by Mitch L. Gohman and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2008-07 with total page 693 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Toward Spiritual Sovereignty diagnoses societal samodaya (Buddhist terminology for emotional craving). The author uses extensive knowledge and wisdom from masters of ages past and present to refocus the spirit of man (spiritus mundi) on a wholesome re-creation of the world community. Every soul has the divine right to determine his or her sacred path to their unique destiny upon the horizons of learned choice. Political aggression, (governmental power), religious aggression (proselytizing), and financial aggression (voracious capitalism) provide conflict and work against the realization of happiness and wellbeing. These works are an attempt to advocate for the abolition of hindrance toward those ends, to advocate, without fetter, for spiritual sovereignty of every soul.Each person, Homo Divinitas (man of Divinity) should be able to experience life without threat. Threat can manifest in the form of hunger, poverty, illiteracy, illness, or physical/emotional/spiritual aggression. The 21st century provides an atmosphere of escalating violence, and terror, amidst the Middle East in particular, and the world in general. Such as the Roman Forum prior to the turn of the first millennia after Christ, mankind seems unable or unwilling to cease participation in the spiritual morphine of violence whether real, virtual, or vicarious. Mr. Casperson's authorship proposes effective measures for self-enlightenment and effective ways to cope with violence and political and religious terrorism.
